If a model was imported with TargetRealTimeMaximumQuality and then
drawn, it causes a blue screen on my system (Nvidia Geforce GTC 650,
Driver version 353.62)
Also disabled Content recreation if a content project is launched with
the visual studio debugger.
The WpfEditor doesn't create a new device anymore every time it receives
focus.
StateObjects get recreated if the used device changes and they get
disposed if the parent GraphicsDevice gets disposed.
Made it possible to separate the InputDevices by their provider and set
a preffered provider. Otherwise you are restricted to only having one
input Device provider.
Improved the error message if the WindowHandle on the InputDeviceFactory
is invalid.
Improved AssemblyLoader which was skipping the InputDevices.OpenTK
assembly because the OpenTK assembly was blocked. Added ANX.Framework
and SharpDX.Direct3D11.Effects to the ignore list.
The AssemblyLoader is not static anymore (Only used in
AddinSystemFactory) and it doesn't add the same assembly multiple times
anymore. Additionally, if a type of an assembly couldn't be loaded, it
throws now a TypeLoadException with the hint that a dependency might
have been loaded in the wrong version.
Refactored RenderSystem.GL3 with the latest changes on the effect system
that have been done in the ANX.Framework.
Remove build message saying that a content file is still valid and will
be skipped.
Use OnApply for Effects, instead of an internal PreBindSetParameters.
Removed unnecessary dependencies from EffectParameterCollection and
EffectTechniqueCollection.
Moved Apply from INativeEffect to INativeEffectPass as Apply can only be
called on an EffectPass.
Added IDisposable to many Native object interfaces.
Added an InputLayoutManager so the InputLayouts don't get created on
every call.
Increased the amount of shared code for the GraphicsDevice between DX10
and DX11.
Simplified the amount of stuff the Draw calls do.
It's possible to use specific renderPasses when drawing and the drawing
methods of the GraphicsDevice don't draw all effectPasses of an effec
anymore.
Fixed the bug that a DynamicVertexBuffer created a staging buffer when
setting Elements for DX10 and DX11, which was unnecessary. Also it
didn't create a staging before for normal VertexBuffers which made it
not possible to set data there.
Implement EffectAnnotations for DX10.
Fixed SetRenderTargets for DX11.
increased the amount of shared code between vertex and index buffers
fixed GraphicsDevice.Reset() which didn't save the provided presentation
parameters and the backbuffer was still bound after the recent changes
about the rendertargets
Vertex and IndexBuffers that get dynamically generated for the UserDraw
methods dispose the buffers now
Added DebugNames to Index and VertexBuffers and their Dynamic version.
Also did some Refactoring for Classes that implement and use
INativeBuffer.
The memory usage reduction for rendertargets resulted in some
refactoring of the directx texture classes.
Also added DebugNames for some DirectX resources in case of a debug
build.
Make ContentCompilerGui compatible to recent changes in pipeline and did
some usability changes.
Make the Visual Studio Extension work even if the ANX Framework is not
installed additionally..
Improve that the path for assembly refernces in a content project
doesn't get automatically updated, only if the reference is actually
saved, this is so you can specify a relative path yourself.
Fix missing icon for ContentProject when it was opened with Visual
Studio.
Made create_shaders.bat directly executable under windows by fixing the
directory separators.
"Removed the SupportedPlatformsImpl classes and replaced them with a new SupportedPlatforms attribute on the assembly level.
Removed a few class constructors which could cause problems when loading a game.
Made ResetElapsedTime in the game class reset to 0 instead of TimeSpan.MinValue.
Removed the restriction in the InputDeviceFactory for which InputDevices are supported.
Added a Logger for Metro which works with the current Logger implementation.
Changed that when a platform is recognized that is higher than Windows 8, it gets treated like Windows 8, not like Windows 7.
Due to the SupportedPlatforms change, the assembly loader is now faster in finding out which assemblies contains addIns. For not Metro system, it's also added that a warning gets written if an AddIn references a different ANX version than that of the running assembly.
OpenGL and DirectX have been updated to the newest versions.
XAudio system uses now the same SharpDX version as all the other systems.
ParameterBuffer for WindowsMetro gets now correctly created by considering the size constraints for constant buffers.
Fixed an erroneous finalizer in the xaudio system.
Made the metro projects convert to Windows 8.1, as Windows 8.0 is not supported by the newer SharpDX versions. It's now also necessary to use at least Visual Studio 2013 to build the Metro versions.
Made the samples work again on Windows."
"Fixed the creation of the swap chain for windows metro and removed the dependency of the Metro Rendersystem onto the Metro Platformsytem.
All occurrences of WindowHandles have been replaced with a custom WindowHandle type which should work out of the box in most cases, but does still represent a breaking change to XNA.
The ProjectConverter for Metro was adjusted so that with just changing the way the application is initialized, most projects that worked with ANX before should now work under win rt. The sample SimpleNoContent does now work out of the box for win rt, after a project conversion.
The application name for win rt apps is now a guid, the display name stayed the same though. That's to be more compliant with the way win rt apps are normally created.
The default namespace and namespace of the classes for the Sample "SimpleNoContent" is renamed from "SimpleModernUI" to "SimpleNoContent".
With the new way win rt apps are initialized for ANX, it's necessary to first create the WindowsGameHost for WinRT with a handler how to create the game instance and give that to the CoreApplication object to run it.
Also took care of a few annoying bugs when working with win rt and ANX where no InputDevices could be created on the first frame (Issue #1164 ) and that it wasn't possible to use the localfolder of the application on the first update and all the other stuff for which an instance of the Application class was necessary."
Also made the recording inputsystem not selectable for that sample as that needs some code modification in the sample to make it work.
It was not possible to run it with openGL because the creation of the windowInfo object was faulty, it might have worked on linux, but it didn't work on windows.
Also updated a few deprecated calls for OpenGL.
Closing an OpenGL application did wrongly throw an exception when an effect gets disposed, this is fixed now and the memory usage was slightly reduced.
For DirectX 11, which didn't work for the samples out of the box, it was changed that the sharpdx effect dll's are now part of the directx 11 rendersystem so that they don't have to be copied over manually anymore.
Did some very small change to the RecordingGamePad class which makes it work if no data is recorded or played back.
